About Collingwood

Collingwood is one of the hottest property spots for young professionals. Hip, happening and increasingly gentrified, it is home to some of Melbourne’s best food and retail outlets, art, culture and fashion. This former industrial hub is now a magnet for creative people – artists, musicians, designers and their ilk.

Nestled between Ftizroy Garden’s miniature village (South), Yarra Boulevard’s cyclist and kayaker haven (East) and Carlton Gardens’ historical, manicured lawns (West), Lantern is centrally located. It cuts a striking silhouette in this modern Melbourne suburb. Head to Smith Street – just one block away from Lantern – for a trip to the vintage boutiques, inventive bars, street art, amazing eateries and lots of shopping.
